A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 593

“Hum! Thank you!” Esther sincerely thanked. “If it wasn’t for you, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t have saved my life!”

Tonight, Elijah didn’t go back.

Thus, he didn’t know Esther had an accident.

Esther’s phone fell into the toilet, so she didn’t call Elijah either.

The next day, Esther was unable to go to school so she missed the class again, but after a full night’s rest, she felt much better! Although she had no strength at all, she felt better than pooping and vomiting yesterday!

Philip also stayed up all night.

After dawn, Esther felt guilty when she saw there was blood in his eyes. Anyway, he saved her but she had no relationship with this man, just like Kattie saved Elijah. And now, she was saved too!

“Philip, you can go back! I’m better now! Just go back and rest!”

“No need!” He just simply answered. “Sleeping is the best way to rest! What will you do if I’m gone?”

“I know! That’s why I let you go back and sleep! I will continue sleeping even if you leave!” Esther smiled warmly while squinting her eyes and looked at Philip, and her heart was touched and feeling warm. “So are you worrying about me?”

Philip was stunned. “Well, it could be as I am still worried to leave you alone here!”

“It’s ok, I’m fine and there is a nurse!”

“Stop it, get well first!” Philip stopped her.

Esther was grateful and guilty when she saw that Philip had been busy all night and taking care of herself. “I’m much better now, and the doctor also said that I don’t need any more drips, so you can send me back as I want to be discharged from the hospital!”

“But the doctor said you need to stay for a while for observation!” Philip said worriedly.

“It’s ok, I want to go back first!” Esther insisted.

She didn’t want to owe anyone. She still forced herself to smile as she got out of bed weakly. “It’s the same if I go home to rest, there’s someone at home who can take care of me, so don't worry!”

Esther insisted on leaving the hospital and Philip didn’t demand too much.

After changing her clothes, Esther carried her shoulder bag and walked along the corridor of the hospital with Philip. As she was still weak, she walked very slow.

“Are you sure you can do it?” Philip was worried.

Giving back Philip a reassuring smile, Esther shook her head. “It’s fine, I have the devil’s luck!”

“It almost costs your life, you would have died if it took a bit longer!” Philip looked at her sideways and saw that her face was very pale, yet, she was struggling hard to move. Philip then reached out to lend her a helping hand. “Let’s go, I’m holding you!”

“Thanks! If I die then it is all over!” Esther smiled indifferently.

“Would you be too young to care nothing about life and death?” Philip’s heart was aching and he then simply picked her up. “You are walking too slow, let me carry you!”

“Ugh!” Esther was stunned but she was already being picked up by him, “Thank you!”

Philip hugged Esther and walked towards the outside of the hospital. Suddenly, Philip’s footsteps lurched and Esther who was puzzled looked up in confusion. They were looking at the familiar figure with cold features who was walking in front of them and just looked at them too!

She blinked and didn’t say anything but just looked at the person walking over!

“Put me down, Philip!” Esther said in a low voice.

Philip complied and let Esther down.

Esther stayed standing there and watching Elijah walking over with his extreme cold eyes looking at Esther.

Esther was shocked and puzzled by the expression in his eyes.

However, Philip said, “Esther, since someone is here to pick you up, then I’ll leave first! Take care and rest more!”

The words of concern were spoken with some instructions. Philip took a very meaningful look at Elijah then left without greeting him.

Esther stayed standing there and carefully looking up at Elijah. She didn’t go back last night and was he angry because of this? “Elijah?”

He turned his eyes away and his voice was cold. “Why didn’t you go to the class?”

Esther was stunned, ‘didn’t go to the class?’ She then spoke as he wasn’t asking about not going back last night, “Didn’t you go back last night?”

Elijah frowned, “Didn’t you go back either? Were you with that person last night?”

Esther smiled bitterly in her heart, no wonder, her phone fell into the toilet, yet, she almost died of being poisoned yesterday and where was he? If it wasn’t Philip last night, she would have been poisoned to death!

“Well, I didn’t go back yesterday and I was with Philip!” Esther smiled faintly but she felt bitter inside.

“Why?” Elijah’s eyes tightened as he asked in a deep voice, “Why didn’t you go back?”

Esther was dumbfounded, “Didn’t you go back either?”

“You don’t look well? What’s wrong?” Hudson said in a deep voice while looking at Esther who was unconsciously gripping his hand tightly at his side. Without her having to answer, he could guess that she was in a bad mood at the moment.

The calmness of his mind was suddenly broken at this moment, the dull depressing feeling made Hudson’s expression stiff as the large hand holding her wrist suddenly gripped her slender fingertips back.

Hudson’s gaze fell on Esther who was in a daze and the cold expression that had been suppressed made the coldness and indifference of herself even more obvious at this moment. The vulnerability often flickered in her eyes but she always liked to cover it up with a smile, how could he still not understand her even after ten years?

“Hudson, I’m so tired, can you send me to the hotel?” She didn’t want to go back as she didn’t want to see Elijah.

He could see she was acting herself to be strong even though she tried to speak in a lighter tone, the smile on her face didn’t even reach her eyes.

“Come back with me! You look really tired!” He said while opening the door of the car for her to get in.

She had no strength at all because her body hadn’t fully recovered, so she fell asleep after she got into the car.

As the car drove to Hudson’s villa, he looked at her whose face was haggard and looking as if she had been very ill. Hudson carried her out of the car as he didn’t wake her up while Esther didn’t wake up either.

The tender body in his arm was much lighter, yet, pity spread up from his chest. Her shoulder bag was a little troublesome when carrying her as it hung on the buckle of the seat belt and the zipper broke open as it was not pulled properly.

Hudson instructed the housekeeper to pack the bag and bring it to Esther’s room.

He then carried her to her room which he always kept for her.

The housekeeper looked nervous when he came up, holding the hospital case and discharge certificate, “Young master, Miss’s stuff!”

Hudson looked serious after taking them. “Food poisoning? Damn it, what did Elijah do? How dare he let Esther get poisoned!”

The loud voice woke Esther who was sleeping up.

“Ugh… Hudson?” Esther slurred her words and opened her hazy eyes but found herself in Hudson’s villa which looked like her old room, and for a moment, she had a feeling of coming home. “Hudson!”

“Esther? Are you feeling better? How do you get nitrite poisoning? Does Elijah know?” Hudson asked her as he sat nervously on the edge of the bed.

Esther shook her head, “I was gluttonous as I wanted to drink chicken soup, and I got poisoned as a result!”

Hudson looked at the haggard little face in front of him worriedly and his heart was aching. “what about Elijah? Does he know?”

“He is helping me take care of Kattie!” Esther smiled. “Hudson. Don’t tell him. I want to sleep, I’m so tired!”

“Alright!” Hudson nodded and helped her cover up with the blanket. “Let’s talk after you get some sleep!”
